Songs with titles starting with “Ha.” So many that evoke the seasons! (231–240)
far awayASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION
This song is one of the defining numbers from ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION’s early career.
It was included in November 2002 as the opening track of their indie debut mini-album “Houkai Amplifier,” and was re-released on a major label the following year.
In 2025, it was featured in a Funabashi Keiba commercial starring Kanako Momota.
The distorted guitar riff creates a sense of speed, and both the sound and the lyrics convey an urge to break through stifling everyday life and head somewhere far away.
Give it a listen when you’re ready to take on a challenge or need a push forward.
Run, Makibao!F Map
This is a song by F-MAP, produced as the opening theme for the 1996 TV anime Midori no Makibaō.
The unit consists of three male Fuji TV announcers: Kenji Fukui, Masaharu Miyake, and Tatsuya Aoshima.
Fukui serves as the lead vocalist, while Aoshima—well-known for his horse racing commentary—handles the play-by-play parts, making full use of strengths unique to announcers.
The original song is Salty Sugar’s Hashire Kōtarō, and this version recreates that sense of exhilarating speed.
The inserted race commentary heightens the realism.
It’s perfect as background music for sports days and competitions, and is recommended when you want to get pumped up.

Heartbeat NighterTHE NUGGETS
Included on the 2017 album “NIGHT RUSH,” the track has been used since 2018 as the main track entry theme at their hometown venue, Funabashi Racecourse.
Centered on the theme of night racing, it’s crafted as a high-octane rock ’n’ roll number that conveys the heartbeat of racing fans who pin their hopes on the thoroughbreds.
Just listening to it vividly rekindles the exhilaration of a race, making it a perfect song not only for horse racing enthusiasts but also for those moments when you want to unleash your energy at a critical time.
Haneuma RiderPorunogurafiti
A title track from Porno Graffitti’s 20th single, its galloping sense of speed—like a bucking horse—sets your heart racing.
Released in June 2006, the song was used in a commercial for Otsuka Pharmaceutical’s Pocari Sweat.
Lyricist Haruichi Shindo expanded on the image of a “wild horse” to match the dynamic sound, depicting uncontrollable impulses and a feeling of acceleration by likening them to a rider on a motorcycle.
The crisp band ensemble is reinforced by a muscular drive, delivering an exhilarating rush.
It’s the perfect song to boost your mood or to play while feeling the wind on a drive.
Halves Christmas≠ME
≠ME, the idol group produced by Rino Sashihara.
The song included as a coupling track on their 11th single “Exclusive Fighter,” released in December 2025, drew attention as the group’s first Christmas song.
It weaves delicate imagery—like white knitwear and chilly ears—to portray moments spent with a lover in a winter city.
The motif of sharing a cake overflows with tenderness toward someone special.
Rather than dazzling festivity, the lyrics focus on the warmth of two people growing closer, making it easy to overlay with one’s own Christmas memories.
It’s a perfect track for those who want to spend a quiet moment with their partner or are looking for a heartwarming love song.
the first strong spring windnishina
This is a song that gently wraps up youthful memories as they drift away with the spring breeze.
Created by Nishina, it captures those everyday scenes—laundry swaying by the window, the scent of shampoo—that suddenly make you wonder, “I hope that person is doing well,” and bring the past rushing back.
Even while holding onto feelings that were never confessed, the song embraces that truth as a cherished memory, which really resonates.
Released in March 2023, it was chosen as the theme song for radiko’s new commercial, “Sound connects the past and the future,” and also featured as an insert song in ABEMA’s dating reality show “Kyo, Suki ni Narimashita.: Phu Quoc Island Edition.” Centered on acoustic guitar, the simple band arrangement highlights Nishina’s delicate yet resolute vocals.
It’s a song I recommend not only to those who have just graduated, but to anyone who finds themselves remembering someone every time spring arrives.
It always begins with rain.CHAGE and ASKA
The gently moving ballad “Hajimari wa Itsumo Ame” by CHAGE and ASKA.
On streaming services you can only hear ASKA’s solo version, but on YouTube there are videos of the two of them singing together, so definitely check them out! The overall vocal range of the song is a relatively relaxed C#3–G#4, so it should be singable without too much strain.
Since the chorus goes a bit higher, lifting your facial muscles and resonating in your head can make it easier to hit the pitches.
Also, consciously articulating the vowels will add emphasis and make it feel great to sing!
